    An air cooled heat exchanger, or ACHE, is a pressure vessel that cools circulating fluid within finned tubes by forcing ambient air over the exterior of the tubes. ACHE's are commonly used because they increase plant efficiency and are more environmentally friendly than alternatives as they don't require water. GEA Rainey builds customized ACHE's for various applications including industrial processes, engines, turbines, gas cooling and more.

    What is an ACHE?
    An air cooled heat exchanger, or ACHE, is simply a pressure vessel which cools a circulating
    fluid within finned tubes by forcing ambient air over the exterior of the tubes. A common
    example of an air cooler is a cars radiator. Please refer to the above interactive picture for
    additional information.
    Air cooled heat exchangers are used for two primary reasons:

    1. They increase plant efficiency


    2. They are a "green" solution as compared to cooling towers and shell and tube
    heat exchangers because they do not require an auxiliary water supply (water
    lost due to drift and evaporation, plus no water treatment chemicals are
    required).
